Pete. We’re getting worried!!! Hope you’re ok!!!

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

hehe thanks mate, all good, just got sick and lost my voice.

@paultheplantparent2702 Год назад

@@petevsplants7516 Thank God. Was really worried. 3 weeks without Pete is no bueno!!! Looking forward to your return. 😃

I've never been really interested in catcuses but I just got my own first ones this year. I'm just very appreciative of the tactile attributes of plants, and you can't really touch many cacti. Lol. They are beautiful for sure. Also, at the end of the growing season, I plan on putting all my cacti together in a single pot to reduce the care load. That's one VERY cool thing about them, their care is all pretty similar and they can be made into a little cacti garden.

@neverstoppulling5169 Год назад

Cactus are the best!!! It's so awesome how many ways you can propagate them and they actually grow crazy fast when they are happy !

@katydid93 7 месяцев назад

Omg, what a sweet and beautiful wife! Recently found your channel and have been binge watching and learning so much.

@LivinLifeMattVlogs Год назад

YOWW!! Was just checking your profile. May 18, 2022 was the date you joined YT.. Happy 1st year anniversary to your channel more views and subs!

@pattituringan6745 Год назад

Can you do a tour of your cactus green house soon.

@juliyakibkalo2585 Год назад

Hey mate! Soooo happy to see you guys! Hate instant coffee 😂😂😂

@litlbeck Год назад

Gardenworld in Braeside is where Collector's Corner is. It'll blow your mind... soooooo many cacti, succulents, bonsai, orchids, tillandsia and some aroids. Worth the (very long) trip.

@pudik2008 Год назад

The Flap Jack grows well in pots or in soil,very tough plant. Can even handle west facing sun,that’s in Adelaide as well. Great video Pete!

@petersebborn306 Год назад

Great video Pete, you should check out Mexican Pinguicula, succulent winter leaves, carnivorous summer leaves, beautiful flowers.

@Klaus231 Год назад

Hey Pete, that hintonii was a steal. Greetings from 🇺🇸. My wife and I love your videos!

@susiesmith2543 Год назад

Your wife is so cute. And really a gem to put up with your cactus habit😅😅😅

@michaelkerley452 Год назад

I will enjoy cacti vicariously through you. The better half would kill me if I took over another room after the aroids and hoya take overs.

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

Haha yeah it gets a bit like that. The good thing is they can go outside haha

@ataramusette2357 Год назад

Love different cacti...i have many

@r3i2x Год назад

Hello Pete, i have been watching your videos for 2 days straight since i found your channel. I am enjoying your plant journey. I gotta say, I fear for you when you enter the hoya craze. Remember me when you reach that era of your plant journey. 🤣😘

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

Haha you're way too kind, mate. Thank you! I'm being careful with hoyas as I know it's also a deep rabbit hole haha

@chrissgarden5979 Год назад

The little greenhouse must be bursting at the seams by now.

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

Lol yeah, definitely need more space...

@margimorris7360 Год назад

Hey Pete. I don't share your love of Cacti but love your passion and excitement.. Have you ever wondered why plants have crazy names. Do you think the people who name them are sitting around tables high as kites saying lets give these plants names most people can not pronounce or spell

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

Hey Margi. Haha I think a big reason is people are trying to be unique, interesting, and also focus on the interesting aspects of a plant when naming it. Scientists often try to pick out key features to help name it.

Grill!

@StalkerNaturaliste Год назад

Aylostera is under Rebutia now. But it may change since Rebutia itself is polyphyletic.

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

Yeah, I think you're right. As soon as I got this into the greenhouse and put it beside other cacti I thought "This looks like Rebutia..."

@jessicaalyse7 Год назад

I'm playing pokemon shield at the moment and your pokemon analogy gave me a good giggle because it's accurate af

@carolstuff Год назад

Wow Pete, like we’re going to know what a cacti is…if you don’t know it😆. Love the first two; they’re absolutely gorgeous. Very interesting info on the rat. Thanks for sharing!

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

Hehe cheers, mate :D

@jessicapetrin1655 Год назад

Where are you?????? Hope everything is ok with you.. Miss ya

@Itsyaboijq Год назад

Hey Pete, just be very careful when you propagate euphorbias. They contain this white latex like sap, and some are extremely toxic. I work in a greenhouse, and we always wear gloves when handling the euphorbias, but one of our volunteers got some in there on and had to go to the hospital. Other than that, they are just like cacti. Chop them and let them callous over, and then a nice rocking mix will do just fine :)

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

Far out... Yeah, I've heard the latex is pretty bad if you get it on your skin, let alone somewhere like in your eyes. I'll try and be careful if and when I prop them :D

@Malgate Год назад

Pete, another great video. The smaller pups growing out from Echeveria should have roots and the mother plant you can grow from the leaf itself. Lay on potting mix or in water and should send out roots Thanks Mal F

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

Amazing. Thought so. Thanks mate!

@kendasaunders606 Год назад

That Gasterialooks a lot like a small one I have that is called a Cow's or Ox Tongue or Gasteria Maculata I think

@paultheplantparent2702 Год назад

Haworthia and Haworthiopsis are one of my favorite succulents. U rock, Pete!!! 😃😃😃

@saskiadeclercq6308 Год назад

I'm not really a cacti-person, but I do love me some succulents 😁 I really love how you go into your Biology background. If you'd have a channel only about that, I'd subscribe for sure ❤

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

:) thanks Saskia!

@shellym79 Год назад

I'm really missing Peaches 😊

@jamesparadigm Год назад

🐸🧦 Great haul, Pete! And an interesting lecture too🐀

@Caeilia Год назад

I recently got a Haworthia obtusa and I can't stop starring at it haha. Just love the shiny see-though windows. I think I've read that the zebra plant haworthias are now known as Haworthiopsis

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

Haha I know! How cool are they :D

@red7even14 Год назад

I need serious help. I can't stop shaking, hot sweats, blurred vision, rash (cacti sap) and I keep losing my grip............. on pots. I've been to the quack. He says I'm going cold turkey, I'm not getting my PvP time. I'm not supposed to just stop, it's advisable to wean myself slowly, especially when Pete has a holiday. (Which you deserve btw). Come back soon, I can't deal with perlite on my carpet.... UK btw, we have carpet. 😝 Hope all is well T ❤

@red7even14 Год назад

Just seen reply on prev post, lost voice?!?!?🤒❤ Take care Mr

@KJonair Год назад

Hey Pete! Everything alright mate? Haven't seen a video from ya in a while and your IG is down. Hope all is well

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

Hey mate, yeah all good. Just been sick (lost my voice) and busy with the kids and work. IG should be working.

@sweetievicdee876 Год назад

Hi Pete. The last plant you showed reminds me of a sansevieria. Maybe it could be that. Either way…. You picked up some really beautiful plants 😊

@petevsplants7516 Год назад

Cheers, Ram :D

@richardr5878 Год назад

If that 18 years, what the heck does a seed start look like? Do they just get a certain size then grow super slow?

@heathie03 Год назад

It took me what? 6-8mo to warm up to the idea of cactus only for one reason. I’m starting to nerd out in permaculture and found out there’s actually frickin’ cactus that grows in zone 3/4 😮 so yeah Im starting to warm up to them from the North Pole lol
